    You probably missed the part where the article talks about university level math, and that strong juxtaposition is common there.

    I also think that many conventions are bad, but once they exist, their badness doesn’t make them stop being used and relied on by a lot of people.

    I don’t have any skin in the game as I never ran into ambiguity. My university professors simply always used fractions, therefore completely getting rid of any possible ambiguity.
